A Fantastic Evening

Thanks to everyone for attending the official launch of our playground drive at the school last night. There were many volunteers who signed up with lots of room for more. Thanks also to the volunteers for providing the snacks. It was a great start and another example of how the theme of "We Belong" continues to carry on in our school community.
